Join us for an unforgettable 2 days Rwanda Gorilla and Golden Monkey Trekking tour. Experience the incredible mountain gorillas and playful golden monkeys in Volcanoes National Park.
Upon getting done with your hotel breakfast in Kigali, or upon arrival at Kigali airport (early noon flight recommended), you will be met by our company representative, who will introduce you to your safari driver guide, who will brief you shortly and later transfer you to the booked accommodation in Musanze. Dinner and overnight stay at the Da Vinci Gorilla Lodge (L, D)
Finally, here comes the day, to get face to face with the gentle gorillas. After your breakfast at the lodge, your guide will be right there, to pick you up from your lodge, for briefing at the park headquarters’, for briefing and group allocation and you will later set off, for the search in the jungle, to allocate the gorillas. A minimal level of fitness is required, such that you will be in full gear to hike at great energy. In a short while of hike, you will definitely, find the gorillas, and you will have an ample moment, of interaction, one on one, eye to eye, and if lucky, shoulder to shoulder with these great apes, as you meet them in their natural setting.
The trek can last for 2 – 6 hours, depending on the gorilla movements, and your fitness level. This is always looked at as a one or two life time moment, where you come face to face with the gorillas. The experience is magical, I have no words to describe it. An hour will be allocated for you, such that your able to stay calm in their presence, take as many photos of your choices, and video clips as well. Later return for lunch and you drive back to Kigali, and drop off at your hotel in Kigali.

The trip was incredibly well-organized, and the team was fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. The food provided was delicious, adding an extra touch to the adventure. The tent setup was comfortable, and the bonfire experience at the top of the mountain was unforgettable. We truly enjoyed every moment and highly recommend this adventure to anyone seeking a unique and memorable experience out of Kigali!Verified Amazing location, phenomenal family, great experience My homestay was a phenomenal experience. The family I stayed with were absolutely amazing. Their kindness and generosity is unmatched and I felt very welcomed. I truly enjoyed every moment of the visit and learned so much about the area. The other activities in the area the next day such as the visit to the lake, the city tour, the archery on the private island, and the visit to the gorilla naming statues were also fantastic. The vehicle used was clean and spacious and I would recommend the activity.Verified Camping in Volcanoes National Park - A fantastic return experience! Theo, Gerard, and the Beyond the Gorillas Experience team did an excellent job organising a another camping trip for my colleagues and me in Volcanoes National Park. The camp was comfortable, the equipment was great, and the food was delicious. They set up everything with great respect for the forest, minimising any disturbance. Thank you for a wonderful trip!Verified A slice of a different life With our guide Vincent we toured Lake Ruhondo by boat and it was magical. We were able to trek across two islands and meet islanders who live with so little but were so happy and very welcoming. We also tried archery and spear throwing on the company’s private island. Vincent was a fantastic guide and shared so much knowledge, he was born on one of the islands so there is no one better to tell you how the locals live. We thoroughly recommend this tour and Vincent 😊Verified A Novel Experience in Rwanda My husband and I came to Rwanda to see a bit of Kigali and to do two gorilla treks.Our guide surprised us with a boat excursion arranged through Beyond the Gorillas.After driving to the Twin Lakes area, we boarded a boat for what we imagined would be a sunset cruise and sundowner. We were utterly delighted to visit an island inhabited by just 29 families, whose small homes and farms dotted the island. We were warmly welcomed by the dancing and music of the village women and then hiked around the island, learning about the families and their somewhat isolated lives. After a very satisfying visit, we went by boat to another nearby island to relax, enjoy drinks and snacks and a beautiful sunset. Lovely, unexpected experience.Verified Fabulous two days. Had two fabulous days with Esther who met me at my hotel and organised for me to trek to Dian Fossey’s grave site and a half day walk around the fields towards Besoke. It was truly magical. I thought being solo it would be hard to organise, especially at such short notice. Esther speaks beautiful English and I really enjoyed her company. Very professional. She also organised my transport back to Kigali.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

My husband and I had a wonderful day hiking Mt Mwiko and boating Twin Lakes to Peace Haven Island for lunch!! Justin and Vincent, with Beyond the Gorillas Experience, exuded so much passion for their country which was passed onto us. Walking through a village before the ascent up, we had the opportunity to interact with the locals while learning so much about the Rwandan culture. During the hike, we saw so many gorgeous birds which Justin identified for us. Once at the top of the mountain, we had an amazing panoramic view and the perfect spot for a group selfie. Next, we boarded a boat and headed to the Island for lunch. Compliments to the chef for a tasty plate of food, yum! The day was very memorable filled with learning, laughter, and connection.
